What Role Do Melatonin Receptors Play in Oxidative Stress?
Melatonin receptors have a role in modulating oxidative stress, a common pathway in toxicological damage. Activation of these receptors can enhance the antioxidant capacity of cells, thereby reducing oxidative damage. This protective mechanism is particularly relevant in conditions where oxidative stress contributes to toxicity, such as neurodegenerative diseases and liver injury.
